    Hi...
    I took this to a potluck dinner at church last night...It looked so pretty in the glass bowl...what a great pasta salad.... all kinds of good things and tastes in there!
    I used ham instead of proscuitto..just because I had it.
    This makes a lot, so be sure to share it!!
    Enjoy!

    2 oz. proscuitto, thinly sliced
    2 tbsp. fresh basil, chopped
    3 tbsp. parmesan cheese, freshly grated

    tomatoes, mushrooms, and proscuitto on pasta.
    Top with remaining pasta.
